Bug 72827 – treeline problems with Unicode

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Adam Byrtek 2004-11-29 09:42:49 UTC]

TreeLine breaks when opening Unicode files. I manage to fix this problem doing:

cp /usr/lib/treeline/sitecustomize.py /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/

but it should really be done by the ebuild.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launche treeline
2. Create file with unicode characters
3. Save it
4. Close it
5. Try to open it

Actual Results:  
Program hangs


Quote from treeline readme:

,,If installing as a normal user with a prefix under your home directory, the
installer will warn that it cannot write to the
sitecustomize.py file in your Python installation. This file is required for
proper Unicode support. To correct this problem, simply copy the
sitecustomize.py file from the source directory to the site-packages directory
in your Python installation. If you already have a sitecustomize.py file, the
lines in the new one may be appended to the existing file.''
